4Chan Claims To Have Fabricated Anti-Trump Report As A Hoax

In a story that is getting more surreal by the minute, a post on 4Chan now claims that the infamous "golden showers" scene in the unverified 35-page dossier, allegedly compiled by a British intelligence officer, was a hoax and fabricated by a member of the chatboard as "fanfiction", then sent to Rick Wilson, who proceeded to send it to the CIA, which then put it in their official classified intelligence report on the election.

On january 10, Buzzfeed posted a story under the byline of Ken Bensinger, Mark Schoofs and Miriam elder titled “these reports Allege Trump Has Deep Ties To Russia” and posted a link to a document alleging, among other things, that russia has been cultivating trump for 5+ years, that trump has been in constant contact with the kremlin for information on his opponents, and perhaps most inflammatory, that there are many recorded instances of blackmail of trump in sexual misconduct. A prominent claim is that trump rented the presidential suite of the Ritz Carlton Hotel in moscow, where he knew that the Obamas had slept in; he them hired a number of prostitutes to perform a 'golden shower' (pissplay) on the bed and in the room. https://www.buzzfeed.com/kenbensinger/these-reports-allege-trump-has-dee...https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3259984/Trump-Intelligence-Al...

The remarkable thing? It's all fake. And not only fake; it's a prank perpetuated by 4chan, on Rick Wilson himself. A post on 4chan on october 26 stated “mfw managed to convince CTR and certain (((journalists))) on Twitter there'll be an October surprise on Trump this Friday” along with a picture of a smug face with a hash name. http://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/94704894/#94705224

on november 1, a person without a picture but is assumed to be the same person posted “So they took what I told Rick Wilson and added a Russian spy angle to it. They still believe it. Guys, they're truly fucking desperate - there's no remaining Trump scandal that's credible.” https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/95568919/#95571329

This story has taken on something of a life of it's own. Going through Rick Wilson's twitter, you can find many different stories from the time that he had shown the story to a wide number of anti-trump news sources, trying to find a news organization that would actually publish the story. During that time period, he referred to it often as 'the thing', and often playing coy with followers on the content with the story with anybody who was not also a #Nevertrumper. Unconfirmed sources has people as high up as John McCain giving the story to FBI Director James Comey to attempt to verify the story. Given that Rick Wilson runs in Establishment circles, it is not an impossible scenario that long-serving senators are falling for what amounts to a 4chan troll trump supporter creating an ironic October Surprise out of wholecloth to punk a GOPe pundit who derogatorily referred to them as single men who masturbate to anime.

While this entire incident is laughable, and even more so if the 4Chan account is accurate, what makes it quite tragic, is that it is no longer possible to dismiss the "fake news" angle to an intelligence report. And if the CIA is compromised, what is left for "news outlets" like CNN and BuzzFeed, which were all too eager to run with the story without any attempt at verification?

This might be an indictment on the entire boomer generation, I am sorry to say. Had it too easy, felt entitled, took it all for granted. All looking for the easy fix, rather than putting in the work to do it right and get it right.

Remember they had Clinton talking about pepe the frog? They call it meme majik. Lol. I call it the most inept incompetent administration ever. Falling for a bunch of trolls and they expect us to believe their reports on "Russian hacking". Unfuckingbelievable.

All this Trump coverage has blown any coverage of the most recent FBI release of Clinton Email related info. Even if there was nothing there, it has gone into the shredder of current news.

The alleged and now discredited Trump thing in Moscow is out there now.

The win for the Deep State is that any Trump reconcilliation with Putin will be viewed with scepticism. MSM is doing everthing they can to undermine both Trump and those that may help him "drain the swamp".

Agree with him or not, Chris Hedges is always insightful. From just 2 days ago: "The Democratic Party must maintain the fiction of liberalism just as the Republican Party must maintain the fiction of conservatism. These two parties, however, belong to one party—the corporate party. They will work in concert, as seen by the alliance between Republican leaders such as McCain and Democratic leaders such as Sen. Chuck Schumer, to get rid of Trump, silence all dissent, enrich the war industry and promote the farce they call democracy."

And anyway whoever said the USA was a democracy? It's a federal republic for goodness sake. The clue is in the "rep" representative

Geez youll be telling me next Fascism comes from the right or left, when in fact it gives allegiance to neither, that's why its called fascism, and that's what you've got, CORPORATE FASCISM, or globalism if you like, or the New World Order, call it what you like, its east to recognize.

You are correct that the USA is a federal republic, but that is not what the public is led to believe by our elite. A simple Google search reveals several statements about "American democracy" by our elite. Mr. Hedges in fact did not claim that the USA is a democracy if you read the quote carefully.

After the Sep. 11th attacks on the WTC, Rayn noticed in a movie that there was a weird looking trick of light & dust that basically looked like a devil's face. He of course posted a screenshot of the movie (directly from CNN's website mind you) with the devil face, which included a zoomed in version and the caption "What the fuck is this?"

Well apparently people sent around links of it to friends via email because the picture itself got a lot of hits, and eventually it found its way to an editor for Cnet, who wrote an article which among other things labeled us "fear merchants", and condemned us for photoshopping this "obviously fake" image, which was in fact quite real. He also directly linked to the image off our server (instead of making a local copy on the cnet site.) Well the hate mail rolled in. Lots of people who believed this guy spammed our email addresses telling us what awful, bad, mean, cruel, evil people we where - and how we were going to burn in hell. This was also killing our server because of all the traffic to the one image. Even removing the image wouldnt have helped because of all the "404 - File not found" pages that would be generated.

So we all emailed the guy that wrote the article and explained to him that the picture was in fact real (and we mentioned that any 'reporter' worth his salt would have checked it out before slandering us,) and sent him a direct link to the movie. We also requested that he either take the article down or remove the part about us. In addition we explained that directly linking to the images was not only breaking our server, but costing our sponsors an enormous amount of money.

Instead, he syndicated the article. It went to CNN, Yahoo news, MSNBC, and basically every major news site on the internet. The now enormous amount of traffic to the site/image was litterally killing the server. We emailed all of them begging them to if nothing else delete the link, as it was wrecking our server. We got no replies.

So, Rayn being very swift of thought decided to take some action. Keeping in mind that the image was linked directly to our server, Rayn replaced the image - and we wrote down how much traffic the image had gotten to that point. The image Rayn chose to replace the devil picture with was the goatse . cx man (the guy holding his asshole open wide enough to park a truck in it.) Rayn then informed the people on the forum what he'd done, and they collectively fell out of their chairs laughing. A few pissed themselves.

After a few hours of almost constant laughing, the sites removed the part of the article about our site. We checked the traffic stats on the image. 300,000 people viewed it thinking it was a harmless image linked from their favourite news site - and those same 300,000 people got an eyefull of some guys spleen.

It's widely considered to be what insured our site's place in the books of infamy:
